The cows aligned themselves in an orderly fashion and seemed to not even cross the white line.

Because safety first.

No word on how the cows got there or where they were itching to go, but the important thing is that they did get there. And that there’s photo evidence.

Fellow railway passenger Francesca Ryan was waiting to board a different train when she spotted the cows across the way. So she did what any human being would do — she snapped a photo and posted it to Twitter.

And now Twitter can’t stop making cow puns, and it’s our favorite thing of the day.

Here’s Ryan’s original post:

false

And here are some of the internet’s clever responses:

I didn't realise that "when the cows come home" they have to catch a train to get there.

According to the BBC, Network Rail closed all the lines while the cows were safely escorted back to the field they came from. Of course, the ordeal caused major train delays, but it made for a pretty amazing story.

#Cowden The cows have mooooooved 🐄 & all lines are now open. Residual delays while service recovers
